Home / Tax & Compliance / GST Cancellation & Revocation & Revocation
Last updated: 2 October 2026
Closing a business, changing its structure or falling below the threshold may mean cancelling your GST registration — and a cancellation by the department may need to be revoked. Our team handles both, and the final return.
Tax must be paid on stock and capital goods held on the date of cancellation, reduced by any credit reversal rules.
Based on sections 29 and 30 of the CGST Act, 2017 and the CGST Rules. Last updated: 27 September 2026.
